Tricia Wiles
1977-1979. Year 3K in 1978

 

What a blast from the past finding this little gem! I am Tricia Wiles of class 3K, 1978. My twin brothers Josh & Caleb were in 2R that year and my older siblings, Tiffany & Chris also attended. I have so many crazy memories of Malaysia so many are blurred over time or lost from my being quite young at the time. I remember the tree rope at the park, "TNT" (!!!!!) and days at shcool. Grape fanta for lunch, crushes, Hillside, the Snow's club & the swimming club. Living next door to Murray & Linton Muirhead, having a pet monkey, and our dear amah, Mary. I remember processing my first 10x8" B&W glossy at the RAAF school in year 2 - I eventually joined up myself & spent 10 years as a photographer... Once an expat always an expat.

I got out of the RAAF & have just returned from 12 months in Saudi Arabia, now in Melbourne catching my breath, but always looking for a new adventure. If anyone makes if to Melbourne you MUST eat at LITTLE MALAYSIA for a lamb curry & roti channai, the nearest a real Penang curry I have found since....

Thank you for keeping alive something so special!
